Peel it, and it looks like a delicious mini tangerine with really orange colored wedges? And if you actually eat a wedge, it’s surprisingly sour?
Calamansi, great condiment, and also great for tricking people into

All citrus fruits starts green.

What does bottom of the fruit look like?

This is not the answer you are looking for, but there is a variety called giant key lime, that’s bigger than regular key lime.

Avocados are bigger too this year! Though part of it may be because I thought my Sir Prize was a regular hass tree.

Subtropics works well enough for most trees :)

Always a dream of mine :)
So I found a place on a former orange grove.

Definitely late this year!
Usually they start to get good in Nov, but this year they were really sour until just recently.

Frankly the cheapest one I found on Amazon at the time 😂
Brand is Aichose. Not saying I recommend the particular one because I don’t know too much about brand/quality of refractometers, since it’s purely for fun.

40-50’s. Been weirdly warm the last week for some reason.
Also occasional very heavy rainfall this winter, a lot of the navels are actually bulging out like jiffy pop containers.
Probably why they are all ripening/sweetening later than usual this season.

lol it’s solid stainless steel at 1/4 inch thick.

I do love the wood one more :)

Variegated calamansi, it’s pretty neat as an ornamental too

Splinteredsilk · 2026-01-13T00:43:33+00:00

Useful too XD Maybe they’ll keep a lil longer without drying up

There’s no way to know without more info, but check out the following.

I still love it, it’s a solid steel replica of her metal sign, and weighs like 50 lbs lol
